HOLLAND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: It's spruce up time (with Home Depot)



Holland Elementary School Teacher Rhonda Danaj, her young students, some parents and the good people from Home Depot led by Rodney Harris visited Heritage Park recently and helped do some sprucing up around Coan Lake. 

Danaj had this to say about the day: 

"The Home Depot has been working with my class all year and they even help out our school. Rodney is the best! This particular project is related to our social studies and literacy project again. This unit is about Civics and Government. Our goal was to write a proposal to the city about improvements that are needed at Heritage Park. We took it a step further by working with our Home Depot partners and making some of those improvements ourselves. It gives the kids pride and ownership. They are responsible young citizens that can have a positive impact on their own community."
